Fresno Votes to Save Public Transit | Fresno News

Published 2 weeks, 3 days ago
Description

Fresno’s City Council pulled an all-nighter to pass a crucial replacement for the expiring Measure C transportation tax, narrowly voting 6-1 to keep public transit and city jobs afloat with a $54 million funding gap — and even leave some cash for other needs. But not all proposals survived: a redistricting reform aimed at giving residents more say in map-drawing failed 4-3, and a debt-free development plan was quietly pulled from the agenda. With the transportation vote now headed to voters, the city braces for a pivotal decision that could keep its wheels turning — literally and figuratively.
